    Getright was my bae in the dial-up days. Saved so many large anime downloads when someone called and broke the connection due to call waiting. Or when the speeds tapered off over the hours and I had to re-dial my ISP.

    Made the content I downloaded feel more special and kept my focus more than all this instant gratification nowadays.

    FlashGet was my jam back in the early 2000s. Then one day it downloaded malware a malicious third party had somehow managed to inject into its updater 😒
